VanEd provides the option to reactivate your coursework for an additional 6 months if needed (reactivation fee applies). Fingerprinting and the background check take anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks.

Reciprocity & Real Estate Continuing Education

Questions about being licensed in other states and maintaining/renewing your real estate license in Oklahoma.

Can I use my current state license to get licensed in another state?

Each state has different regulations surrounding reciprocity. VanEd encourages licensees who are licensed in another state and want to obtain their Oklahoma real estate license to contact the Oklahoma Real Estate Commission 405-521-3387 to inquire about reciprocity. If you want to obtain a real estate license in another state, you should contact the State's Commission or Department of Education.

I already have a real estate license from another state – do I have to take the ENTIRE 90-hour online course?

We encourage all licensed agents to contact the Commission's office ( 405-521-3387) to confirm what reciprocal requirements there are for the state in which you wish to obtain additional licensure.

Most active licensees coming from other states will be required (at minimum) to take the three 1hr out-of-state courses, which can be found on our Continuing Education Page.

I'm already licensed – how much Continuing Education do I need?
